replied that as a woman she received 10

times more pleasure he was ever given as

[Music]

[Music]

that's SAA ass so it says actually it

was painted 50 years after her death she

doesn't look like me one bit what's

written

there it's a stance of her poetry some

men say nothing on the Dark Soul Earth

says lovely is infantry on Parade other

men say Cavalry or Swift

warships but I

say lovelist is whom you love that's

beautiful we know that Safa wrote nine

books of poetry and that she was so

famous that her profile was minted on

the local coins but the only Christians

burned her works why would the monks

burn her work if she would is so well

known because it was love poetry written

by a woman to women it was Safa who put

the lesbian in

lesbos how is it that you know so much

about her my father is a professor of

archaeology he's working on an

excavation here because of Ling and the

revolution we can't go back to

Russia come on I'll show you what else

is kept locked up in here

where are we this is where we hide our

most interesting finds from the

public what on Earth is

that it's a prose it's ceremonial penis

in ancient times they placed a statue

like this in every Orchard to scare our

thieves and to fertilize the trees

chipped coffee cup huh father is a

follow of pagor oh like Pythagoras's

triangle he invented the musical scale

like a wheel that repeats the same story

[Music]

Helen where are we this was once the

Temple of Apollo god of the

sun according to the legend lovers

tormented by and re quied desire was

sacrifice to Apollo and then they would

leap of this cliff into the sea down

there if they survived their leap of

faith they were cured of their passion

and if they didn't survive them they

were heal of their laugh all the

same well that's some way to fall out of

love they say safite here out of love

for a fisherman but I thought you said

she loved women some times if we are

lucky enough to love somebody who cares

if it's a boy or a

girl love is what is

love aren't you scared it's a long way

down to fall I want to know what it

feels like to be a

bird to trust the way

[Music]

and why did you do that I wanted to and

if you wanted it to then it's all right

I've never been with a girl not when you

were at school didn't you even practice

kissing it was forbidden we were watched

all the time it was forbidden in my

school too but we all did it if you like

I can be a girl

I'm not that

sort I'm sorry

[Music]

we used to love me when I'm old and

useless for making love you're too young

to ever be old

I'm not I'm as ancient as Beauty herself

this Flesh and Blood and Bone is just my

latest costume you never said you

believed in reincarnation maybe I

do that Mo could be me

Phil she loved the light too much to

fear the

flame don't be so

tragic I've only just started out but

already it's too late to

stop stop what you

me the

change there's nothing I can do about

it what are you trying to

prove that at least I'm not a

coward you're bold you're brave you're

beautiful there's no need to hurt

yourself and I thought every man dreamt

of weing a masochist you know they say

they make the most Miss of

wives Bottoms Up

[Music]

hello Helen sh

[Music]

her mother was a

violinist Sunday when the revolution is

over we will go home and she will play

concerts too do you play only the

grandone I have no talent for anything

just good taste very expensively

purchased what are those they look like

fossilized Easter eggs this is how we

[Music]

began what they're making love H long

ago the first people wear hole like this

sometimes they wed and cowed but mostly

they rolled around like a ball what

happened then one day the gods decided

to kill them all why because they were

too

happy but then Aphrodite said she knew

how the new people could be made to need

the gods and and then afrodite took a

strand of her golden hair and cut all

the people in two so that one half

became a man and one half became a woman

but here are two women that is how

Aphrodite made the

lesbians where all the love goddess is

work and then the new half people threw

their arms around their other half

snacks and locked their mouths together

Longing To Be whole

again however no matter how much they

made love the half people still felt

incomplete

so soon the new half people began to lie

and to deceive and even to disbelief

that they had a true other half who

could make them whole and as the half

people begged all the guts up in heaven

for help the guts all grew fat on their

prayers and

sacrifices this is how love came into

the world hello I thought I'd never see

you again H here I

am how do you like me as a boy very much

let's go for a bicycle

ride have you finished

playing about canot always be Strunk or

it will break and a man cannot always

work or he will go

really be a boy and and not have to

worry about getting pregnant or bleeding

man but I thought you said you loved

women what else is a girl to do all our

men killed one another in the world

joke give my regards to your father Mrs

uh LEL

[Music]

so what's the news from

home

well stock market headlines are both

soaring Babe Ruth had a new home run

record and the mob are making miling

importing moonshine from Canada because

Congress doesn't understand you can't

forbid human nature

cheers I meant what's in your

letters H the gallery sold two canvases

well that's

marvelous that's twice as many paintings

as Vincent vano ever sold in his

lifetime how's your

father he's hoping I'm a child already

are you no and I won't be forever you

don't really want me to get fat and ugly

and love some vile brat not you do you

maybe I would someday

[Music]

[Music]

hello I escaped from my father at

last Helen my husband Phil hello hello

please thank you Phil's a painter he

just sold his first two canvases but he

thinks he's a genius and he's determined

to make the rest of the world believe it

too so what do you think well I think

he's very handsome just like an

advertisement of a man he's a third

bread american Aristocrat too one of his

an ancestors bought Manhattan from a

drunk Indian for $23 silver dollar and a

bottle of whiskey so you're my wife's

new friend

[Music]

mhm how did you do

that practice he always does that when

he wants to make a new friend I felt

hurt too the first time we

[Music]

met I have a present for you it's sers

poetry all that survives

my mind's in two I can't

decide you came and I wanted you you

deceived my mind as a blazed with desire

and what comes next it's lost we'll

never

know well perhaps we should decide for

ourselves look so medil let's invest

[Music]

investigate it's obscene the all God

suit of this island so much better than

these weird Jewish Imports what's so

weird about

Christianity what's so normal about a

bastard child fantasizing that his mom's

a virgin and his runaway dad's all

Mighty and all merciful Lord God maybe

you're missing the point yeah and what's

the point

love but what kind of love love which

thinks of Desire something shameful and

forbidden and which makes suffer in its

meaning all love which is open and

unafraid and

free see that's just it Phil

Christianity began as a religion of

slaves and of women which in those days

was the same thing it doesn't suit

people like us we should believe in

desire and not in virginity and in life

before death not afterwards

[Music]

look let's have our picture taken one

feel be offended isn't it like trading

with the Enemy so what if he does mine

photography will soon make painting

obsolete

anyway never the camera only sees it

doesn't

feel I think your husband's so handsome

is it all right of course what man could

ever object to having two women I mean

really is it all right with you why not

we're modern people let's all be in love

with one another really

I'd like

that it's so antique Phil it's like the

in the glow

[Music]

[Applause]

May confess something terrible I'm not a

priest if you were a priest I wouldn't

tell

you is it so

bad I'm in love with your

[Music]

wife I'm in love with my wife

too I could be in love with you too

would you mind

how could you be in love with two people

at the same time oh that's easy it's

only in fairy tales that things like

that and

[Applause]

happen we'll be good

[Music]

together will

[Music]

s sa and

you and you

we're all wrong we're not together we're

just two people standing in a crowd then

let's go off my hand

[Applause]

[Music]

Helen

sorry how do you like my

friend she's Charming but she's in love

with you she's in love with both of us

if I'm not

crazy I kissed her Phil but if you kiss

her too then I won't feel bad how do you

like my

present what do you really want her I

don't know yes as an experiment it'd be

strange and dangerous and Pagan and fun

comes each other to be faithful remember

I'm being faithful in my own way how can

I be true to you if I'm not true to

myself and besides you don't want me to

live a life do

you see I've been recaptured at last my

father Professor Vladimir Arlo Mr Philip

Laval I am pleased to meet you

hello hey what's he

doing now he ignited the Canon to scare

away the turs for one more year that is

how the festival always

[Applause]

ends excus us we must go Antiquity has

been waiting 2,500 years and it can't

wait a moment longer good night good

night good

night come swimming tomorrow I'll do

that come in the water's

lovely stay still

did I scare you you look like an

angel come on

[Music]

it seems unfair that we enjoying

ourselves and that Phil is

working every artist must learn to be

alone and besides he's not really alone

he's surrounded by millions of imaginary

admirers haven't you ever wanted to be

an artist why should I share this moment

with some complete stranger in a picture

gallery or movie stall it's so

vulgar I want to keep it all for myself

but what about when you're dead then

I'll be

dead if your father is right we'll both

relive this moment in different

lifetimes over and over and over I'd

like that so much

[Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

hello you're

late would you like something to drink

champagne how was your work will you

show me someday when you're

bored who wants to make a

toast to Aphrodite goddess of the seaf

foam

so what are we celebrating can't you

tell don't I look changed

sa we did it now I really am a boy as

well as a

girl I should go my father will worry

him oh he knows where you are stay the

night now you can kiss Phil I know you'd

like that safo no this is wrong you're

my

wife don't be so unsophisticated hat it

it's not infidelity if we don't keep

secrets we're just being generous with

our bodies come

on okay all right that's

enough now that we shared around the

guilt we can all be happy

[Music]

Come dance with Helen Phil I'm dying on

my

[Music]

feet are you still mad I kiss

you why should you care how I feel I'm

nothing to

you I told

you I'm in love with

[Music]

you you shouldn't say that love is

someone you die for not this Jazz of

lust and egoism for two or three

whatever number this is all right then

I'm in lust with

you and I'm dancing in your arms tell me

is that so

[Music]

B what are the staks we're playing for

the rat to show your bed I'm trying to

win Phil but she keeps rolling doubles

don't I even get to choose who I sleep

with uh-uh you're stud stallion we've

planned out your diary we'll take turns

at being your girl one day at a time

Sunday will be a day of rest this game

is just to decide who goes first tonight

very funny let's discuss something more

serious I know Helen let's think of a

way to end our Wars oh that's easy we

just need to invent a way from men to

give birth to children I want you to

love

Helen you can marry her if she likes I'm

not a Turk I can only have one one wife

not two it's in the rules don't be so

boring Phil there are no rules there's

nothing that we can imagine that's not

allowed love is what is love well love

is loyalty too don't you even care if I

sleep with other women now you can sleep

with other boys too if you'd

like will you marry my husband yes

that's perfect it makes it all so

simple we can all be married to one

another would you really marry me yes

are you really asking

me well Phil have you got the

balls don't you understand no good will

come of this game theory might sound

fine but people aren't like that we take

sides get jealous and start to hate one

another just like what happens when do

normal people get married maybe that's

how it is most times for most couples

but it's the way nature meant it to

be you see H ly that's what makes Phil

such a bad painter he wants to be likeed

too much so he just paints ordinary

pictures that ordinary people will

buy Phil come back I'm going for a

walk don't worry he'll be back sooner or

later

h

good evening we waited for you until

sunset where were you where's safo she's

dreaming that she Safa come back to life

she said she loves me oh

no why don't you leave there's no future

in all of this because just now I'm

happy you're crazy you

too let's ask the girl to leave we could

go home to America begin

over home this Island's my home Phil I

can't go back to America no more than I

can become a virgin again their doors

once open can never be closed but all I

want is for you to be the girl I married

jealousy and yet it erases its effects

jealous we want the and you said it was

who sits beside you hearing all for him

deaf and Flames snake through my

veins a trembling Huns my

that

poetry I wrote it long

ago in another lifetime you really don't

think you're safo reincarnated do you of

course I'm safo I always was but all we

decide didn't Phil tell you see

husband is

pennil of course he comes from one of

the Rat families but his father was a

gambler who swindled his mother out of

every Benny she had then he shot his

brains out in a Paris hotel

room don't be so offended Phil a girl

has the right to know these things

before she sleeps with you don't you

think you've had enough to drink all

hel in tonight cuz I can recommend her
